Copper-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction of Grignard reagents with primary-alkyl halides: Remarkable effect of 1-phenylpropyne

(Chemical Equation Presented) A general get-together: The Cu-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction of primary-alkyl halides with primary-, secondary-, and tertiary-alkyl and phenyl Grignard reagents proceeds efficiently in THF under reflux in the presence of 1-phenylpropyne (see scheme). The reaction is also applicable to alkyl mesylates (OMs) and tosylates (OTs). The reactivities of alkyl-X with a Grignard reagent increase in the order X = Cl F OMs OTs Br.

Mechanistic Studies of Catalytic Carbon-Carbon Cross-Coupling by Well-Defined Iron NHC Complexes

The mechanism of iron-catalyzed carbon-carbon cross-coupling reactions between Grignard reagents and alkyl halides has been investigated using well-defined N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) compounds. The iron(II) precatalyst, [Fe2Cl2(μ-Cl)2(IPr)2], was employed in several C-C cross coupling reactions exhibiting the ability to efficiently couple primary and secondary alkyl halides with several aryl and alkyl Grignard reagents. For selected substrates, a 2 mol % catalyst loading (4 mol % Fe) afforded conversions of >99% and were achieved with 8% homocoupling of the electrophile. The mechanism of the coupling reaction was studied by means of radical clock, radical trap, and single-turnover experiments, which support a radical-based cycle involving an Fe(II/III) redox couple. The implications of this mechanism on the efficacy of iron-NHC-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions are discussed.

Remarkably, it further allows a new nickel(0)-catalyzed cross-coupling between functionalized benzylic zinc reagents and primary alkyl iodides leading to polyfunctional products in good yields under mild reaction conditions (0-20 °C, 4-16 h).

Defunctionalization of sp3 C–Heteroatom and sp3 C–C Bonds Enabled by Photoexcited Triplet Ketone Catalysts

A general strategy for enabling a light-induced defunctionalization of sp3 C–heteroatom and sp3 C–C bonds with triplet ketone catalysts and bipyridine additives is disclosed. This protocol is characterized by its broad scope without recourse to transition metal catalysts or stoichiometric exogeneous reductants, thus offering a complementary technique for activating σ sp3 C–C(heteroatom) bonds. Preliminary mechanistic studies suggest that the presence of 2,2′-bipyridines improves the lifetime of ketyl radical intermediates.

NHC-Iridium-Catalyzed Deoxygenative Coupling of Primary Alcohols Producing Alkanes Directly: Synergistic Hydrogenation with Sodium Formate Generated in Situ

The direct conversion of alcohols into long-chain alkanes is an attractive but extremely challenging approach for biomass upgrading. Here, we describe the highly selective deoxygenative coupling of aryl ethanols with primary alcohols to produce alkanes, using a bis-N-heterocyclic carbene iridium (bis-NHC-Ir) complex as the catalyst. Up to quantitative yields and selectivity with a broad substrate scope are attained in both homo- and cross-coupling reactions. Mechanistic studies reveal that the further synergistic hydrogenation of the alkene intermediates by the formate generated in situ in the presence of bis-NHC-Ir is crucial for alkane production.

Nickel-Catalyzed Regioselective Hydroalkylation and Hydroarylation of Alkenyl Boronic Esters

Metal hydride catalyzed hydrocarbonation reactions of alkenes are an efficient approach to construct new carbon–carbon bonds from readily available alkenes. However, the regioselectivity of hydrocarbonation remains challenging to be controlled. In nickel hydride (NiH) catalyzed hydrocarbonation, linear selectivity is most often obtained because of the relative stability of the linear Ni–alkyl intermediate over its branched counterpart. Herein, we show that the boronic pinacol ester (Bpin) group directs a Ni-catalyzed hydrocarbonation to occur at its adjacent carbon center, resulting in formal branch selectivity. Both alkyl and aryl halides can be used as electrophiles in this hydrocarbonation, providing access to a wide range of secondary alkyl Bpin derivatives, which are valuable building blocks in synthetic chemistry. The utility of the method is demonstrated by the late-stage functionalization of natural products and drug molecules, the synthesis of an anticancer agent, and iterative syntheses.

NiH-Catalyzed Reductive Relay Hydroalkylation: A Strategy for the Remote C(sp3)?H Alkylation of Alkenes

The terminal-selective, remote C(sp3)?H alkylation of alkenes was achieved by a relay process combining NiH-catalyzed hydrometalation, chain walking, and alkylation. This method enables the construction of unfunctionalized C(sp3)?C(sp3) bonds under mild conditions from two simple feedstock chemicals, namely olefins and alkyl halides. The practical value of this transformation is further demonstrated by the large-scale and regioconvergent alkylation of isomeric mixtures of olefins at low catalyst loadings.

Efficient phosphine-mediated formal C(sp3)-C(sp3) coupling reactions of alkyl halides in batch and flow

The construction of C(sp3)-C(sp3) bond is an essential chemical transformation in synthetic chemistry due to its abundance in organic scaffolds. Here we demonstrate a valuable adaptation of the Wittig-type chemical procedure to efficiently facilitate C(sp3)-C(sp3) bond formation utilizing a range of alkyl building blocks. Additionally the method is amenable with flow synthesis to afford coupled products in good to excellent yields without laborious purification process.

Ruthenium-Catalyzed Dehydrogenative Decarbonylation of Primary Alcohols

Dehydrogenative decarbonylation of a primary alcohol involves the release of both dihydrogen and carbon monoxide to afford the by one carbon unit shorter product. The transformation has now been achieved with a ruthenium-catalyzed protocol by using the complex Ru(COD)Cl2 and the hindered monodentate ligand P(o-tolyl)3 in refluxing p-cymene. The reaction can be applied to both benzylic and long-chain linear aliphatic alcohols. The intermediate aldehyde can be observed during the transformation, which is therefore believed to proceed through two separate catalytic cycles involving first dehydrogenation of the alcohol and then decarbonylation of the resulting aldehyde.
